Chapter 438: Salt iron monopoly

Views:

Wang Tu was shouting grievances in his cell. He really didn’t know how that beautiful woman might have something to do with Liu Xin. Otherwise, he would use his ten courage, and he would not dare to beat that woman’s idea, even that woman. If people take the initiative to seduce him, he absolutely dare not. It's not that he is lusty and courageous. It is here in Xiangyang, on someone else's territory. He dare not be too presumptuous. If it were in Puyang, he would naturally be unscrupulous. ,

Those jailers were all human beings. The one who knew Wang Tu had offended was Liu Xin. Nowhere could he give him a good face. When he heard his screaming, he became a little impatient. The lead jailer picked up a water fire stick. Just smashing his head and covering his face according to Wang Tu was a good fight, and he still cursed and said: "What are you shouting? No one who comes here will not say that he is wronged. Just stay with me, or else..."

Before he finished speaking, he heard someone say behind him: "Okay, step back,"

The jailer looked back and hurriedly threw the stick in his hand, stood aside with his hand hanging down, and said nervously, "My lord, I..."

The people who came were Liu Xin and Jushou. Liu Xin waved his hand and motioned him not to say anything. Then he turned to Wang Tu and said, "Wang Tu, you are convicted."

When Wang Tu saw that it was Liu Xin who had gone back and forth, he hurriedly said, "Master Liu, the young man is convicted, so you can spare him this time. The young man really doesn't know that it is..."

Liu Xin snorted coldly: "It's not difficult to want me to spare your life, but you always have to leave something."

When Wang Tu heard that he could survive, he could still think about it, and said repeatedly: "Small luggage is in the post house. As long as the adults can see them, they can take them as they please."

Liu Xin laughed loudly: "It's so troublesome to go to the post, so let's take a different approach to you,"

Wang Tu heard that Liu Xin's words had no good intentions and was shocked and said: "Liu Master, I am Prime Minister Cao's person, you can't do this to me,"

Jushou said in a deep voice, "What about Cao Cao's people, even if Cao Cao himself breaks the law, my father-in-law will not forgive him lightly."

Liu Xin didn't want to talk nonsense with Wang Tu, turned around and asked Ju Xu: "Gongyou, what you just said, what is the punishment to be imposed on him?"

Jushou arched his hands and said, "Going back to the lord, there are three punishments: 劓, 髡, and 刵, and the executioner will be there soon."

When Wang Tu heard that he was going to be punished like this, he couldn't help but flew away, and said loudly, "Master Liu, you can't be like this. It's your girl and I took the initiative to seduce me."

Of course Liu Xin didn't need to explain to him the relationship between Yan Rui and herself, and said coldly: "You said she seduce you, but there is evidence,"

Wang Tu shook his head. At that time, he and Yan Rui were the only people in the alley. Then two guards suddenly appeared and arrested him. He could not tell.

Liu Xin sneered again: "That has physical evidence,"

Wang Tu shook his head again. Of course there was evidence. When he was pushed to the ground by his guards, he watched the woman tear his long skirt open in front of his chest, but this evidence could only be more important to himself. unfavorable,

Liu Xin shrugged and said, "There is no evidence of human evidence. What are you calling for injustice?"

Wang Tu smiled bitterly and said, "But, she really seduced me,"

At this time, there was a rush of footsteps outside the prison door, and a man dressed as a government officer came over and said, "I have seen all the adults, the young Zhu San was ordered to come. May I ask who was tortured?"

Ju awarded Zhiwangtu and said, "It's him,"

Zhu San glanced at Wang Tu’s handsome and fair face, a wicked smile appeared at the corners of his mouth, and leaned forward and said, “It turns out that this is the young man. He just reported to the two adults. The little one has not moved the punishment for many years. It's unavoidable that I'm a little rusty, I'm afraid of accidentally scratching other places,"

Liu Xin said impatiently: "You can just do it, as long as it doesn't hurt his life, everything else will do no harm. I'll go back first, let's leave it to you."

Although he had been on a bloody battlefield, but seeing Wang Tu's nose and ears cut off in person like this, he still felt too cruel and a little uncomfortable, so he found an excuse to leave first, but Jushou was not in this situation. Thinking strangely, he pulled a chair very calmly and sat down opposite Wang Tu.

Zhu San said that he hadn't used this kind of punishment for many years, and it was true. Not to mention that after Liu Xin took charge of Jingzhou, even before Liu Xin, this kind of punishment was rarely used. For the most wicked people, he can impose chassing and slowing , And for the lesser crimes, most of them will be sentenced to stick or imprisonment. Of course, in the current city of Xiangyang, most of the lesser crimes will be punished by “tuning the land”.

But Zhu San hasn’t been executed for many years, but it doesn’t mean that he was born. The reason why he explained to Liu Xin first is just because Wang Tu is too handsome, and Zhu San has a kind of hatred for Xiao Bailian’s teeth. , Without him, it’s just that he looks too ugly and hasn’t been able to ask a wife for years,

Wang Tu was quickly tied to a thick and short wooden stake. The reason why he chose the short stake was to shave his head conveniently. Although Jushou didn’t mind watching the execution scene, he did not like to hear the prisoners’ painful screams. He also ordered people to shut up Wang Tu’s mouth,

Zhu San smiled and took out a sharp knife from behind, rubbed Wang Tu's head back and forth a few times, and pulled out the hairpin from Wang Tu's bun. Wang Tu's hair suddenly fell away, and Zhu San's wrist lightly flicked. Shaking, then a strand of hair fell,

When Wang Tu saw this scene, he let go of his heart, because I heard Jushou just now that he was going to be punished with three punishments: 劓, 髡, and 刵. At that time, Wang Tu was so frightened that he did not dare to ask more, but there must be no three punishments. The same applies. Now that the hair is shaved, it should be tortured. Although shaved hair is ugly, it will grow again. Wang Tu is not a person who pays much attention to courtesy, justice and shame. It’s really indifferent to say,

Who knows, he felt a numbness in his lower abdomen just when he thought of this, and his body shook for a while, and a sharp pain came from his forehead. He only heard Zhu San repeatedly say: "Oh, what are you moving? , My forehead was cut, and it came out that Zhu San’s craftsmanship was not good."

In fact, Wang Tu was so good, how could his lower abdomen feel numb? It was obvious that Zhu San took advantage of him and gently pushed him with his knee.

This head was shaved for more than half an hour, and when Wang Tu became bald, there were also seven or eight "scratches" on his face. It is not appropriate to say "scratches" because there are some "scratches". The mark" is more than half an inch deep, so it can’t be explained by scratching.

At this time, Wang Tu was bloody and looked particularly hideous and terrifying. He twisted his body desperately and wanted to speak, but with a rag stuffed in his mouth, he could only make a "hum" sound. If it is normal, this Zhu San wants to talk. I ridiculed Wang Tu a few more words. However, there is Jusho here today, so he doesn’t dare to make too much trouble.

Jushou still has a lot of things to do, but the torture of Wang Tu has not been done publicly, so he needs to be monitored here. Seeing Zhu San only shaved Wang Tu's head and it took more than half an hour, Jushou was a little unable to sit down. Stopped, he shouted in a deep voice: "Zhu San, move faster,"

Wang Tuben thought that the punishment executed by Zhu San was over, but felt the pain on his face unbearable. Suddenly he heard Ju Sui's urging, and he knew that the matter was far from over. He was frightened and struggling hard.

Zhu San got the order from Ju, and he didn't dare to neglect. Seeing Wang Tu twisted and twisted, I was afraid that he would miss his head with a few knives and missed his reputation. He couldn't help but get angry, according to Wang Tu's stomach. It was a punch and shouted: "Be honest,"

This punch was extremely heavy, hitting Wang Tu's belly for a while, and the whole person shrank into a big shrimp, trying to vomit, but there was something in his mouth, but he could not vomit. Zhu San took advantage of this opportunity, The sharp knife in his hand was swiped repeatedly, and the blood burst out, Wang Tu's body shivered violently, his throat was trembling, his eyes widened, and he stared at the three that fell in front of him. The bloody object, the look in his eyes could not tell whether it was fear or anger,

Zhu San received a sharp knife, and a helper brought a copper basin long ago to help Wang Tu apply medicine to stop the bleeding and bandage the wound. Although it was only a small wound, it would bleed too much or cause infection, which would kill people. For the executioner In other words, if something like this happened, it would be equivalent to breaking his job, and he would have no face to do it again in the future.

Seeing that the execution had been completed, Ju Ji stood up and said, "Send him back to the post, and drive out of Xiangyang along with the soldiers he brought. Besides, let him bring this letter to Cao Cao."

After saying this, Jushou threw a slip to the jailer next to him, and walked away. He wanted to see Liu Xin in a hurry and talk about the implementation of the salt and iron monopoly.

Liu Xin had already told Ma Yun how to deal with Wang Tu. Ma Yun frowned. She always felt that it was cruel to do so. Her original intention was to teach him a lesson, to beat him a few times, and to utter evil for Diaochan. That’s it, but I didn’t expect Liu Xin to cut off his nose and ears. However, Ma Yun didn’t say anything. After all, it’s already happened. It’s useless to say anything. What’s more, in this era, people with great powers really It’s one word for life, one word for death, cutting off the nose and ears is nothing.

However, Liu Xin's treatment in this way can be regarded as fulfilling the original agreement, and it has gone a step further. She did not embarrass Wang Yun, but also gave him such a tone. Therefore, Ma Yun very readily took out the loan. But no one knew that Liu Xin's punishment of Wang Tu was clearly "public revenge".

When Jushou rushed to the prefecture, Liu Xin had already placed a thick stack of silver bills in front of him, and all of them were of the kind with a face value of ten thousand taels, a full two hundred and sixty.

After listening to Jushou reporting the execution, and hearing him talk about the idea of the salt and iron monopoly, Liu Xin pointed to the silver bills in front of him, and said with a smile: "Let’s put the salt and iron monopoly away first. I have this money. It should be okay to support the collection until next summer, right?"

"As long as there is no war, it will definitely be enough," Jushou saw the pile of silver bills, his eyes lighted up, but he was still a little puzzled, and asked, "But, the matter of the salt and iron monopoly, the lord has mentioned a lot. Second, now is the time to spend money, why not take advantage of it and launch it,"
